My cell phone rang before I could stop giggling long enough to tap the rest of the reply. Damn telemarketer. No, I didn’t want to switch to solar, thank you.

By the time I clicked back to Fletch, he’d beaten me to the punch and apologized his way off the line, having to get to a teleconference with his European office. Despite the aching stab in my heart from missing them both a little more, I smiled. The man loved texting me at all hours of the day, wanting to know everything from what I’d for lunch to the moisture status of my panties. Drake on the other hand, liked voice contact: brief and gruff, but so sexy and dirty, he melted the panties Fletch had demanded to know so much about.

They were so wonderfully different—yet so much the same, in that they held my heart in the palms of their hands. Yes, now more than ever. Even more than nearly two weeks ago, after they’d flown to California and we’d cleared the air about so much, soaring to a new level in our relationship with our three-way agreement. Since then, I’d been living over the moon. Flying in a galaxy of happiness, every star in the sky so clear and brilliant and joyous. On their own, either of those men would be a fantasy come to life—but together, they were all my dreams come true.

Except for the 1,500 miles between us.

More sadness panged. I force-fed myself another hope-filled reminder that we’d be together soon…but to this day, I hadn’t heard that exact plan. Both the guys owned thriving, diversified businesses in addition to serving on the SGC board, which consumed a lot of their time and attention. They moved in the same echelon as Killian Stone—who, I knew from hanging with Claire, was often up before dawn and back in bed past midnight due to his responsibilities. All those businesses were solidly anchored in Chicago. I would never expect them to uproot their lives and move to California just to be with me—though I had to confess that very fantasy kept me awake at night.
